Dungeon Spire— sixty-ninth floor
"Nice," Satoshi muttered under his breath as he dodged a fiery fanged wolf's bite. It was only the sixty-ninth floor and the creatures he encountered were already much stronger than him. And with five of his familiars integrated with him, it's only a matter of time before he exhausts himself and there's nothing he could do but go back.
After defeating the fiery fanged wolves on the sixty-ninth floor, he didn't waste any time going to the seventieth floor. Right now, he was trying to cover as many floors as he could before America takes over. He heard it straight from his father's party— that if they couldn't clear the dungeon in a week, then they'd have no choice but to renounce their ownership over the dungeon despite it being in their territory.
"If I could, I should clear this out until the hundredth floor. But would I hold out until then?" With that question in mind, Satoshi gritted his teeth in frustration. "If only I had more control over my superpower tsk~!"
Ever since Satoshi got his superpower, life had been smooth sailing despite the many unforeseen events that he encountered. Starting from the Slime Alien Invasion, then all the way to the Inter-High, and then to the latest Superhero License Exam, he didn't have a hard time through it at all.
But right now was different, way different from how he viewed the Dungeon Spire to be. He had seen countless news and watched countless videos about dungeons. And most of the time, the dungeons were easy to clear. Aside from the bosses every ten floors, the other floors were pretty much cannon fodder. That's why he concluded that this particular dungeon would be the same as well.
"Turns out I'm wrong," Satoshi said to himself as he arrived on the seventieth floor.
[Master]
Suddenly, Satoshi heard a small and kind of monotonous voice in his head, causing him to stop before he stepped foot into the seventieth floor. Just like any other floor, stepping into the room would cause the monsters inside to run rampant. Fortunately, Satoshi stopped himself just in time when he heard the voice.
"Dex? Is that you?"
[No, Satoshi, that's the Cloak of Invisibility. He wishes to speak with you,] Dex responded.
"I see. Do you need anything, Cloak of Invisibility?" Satoshi asked, pondering whether he should change its nickname since it was too long.
[I have an idea. Would you like to hear it, master?]
"Sure, go on," Satoshi responded.
.....
Meanwhile, way up above the skies by the troposphere, a certain man with white hair crossed his arms as his robe flitted on the jet streams that mercilessly blew on him. Albeit the strong winds, the man floated motionlessly, watching everything unfold down below. "What fools, creating a civil war while a Dungeon needs to be cleared." He muttered to himself.
"Right then, let's get this over with." The man tightened his tie and readjusted his black gloves before he floated down.
Just like everyone else, he was especially curious about the superhero who created portals while riding a white lion that shot out blue lightning. This was the first time he saw someone control a powerful familiar and he was surprised. "Familiars that strong are very rare if you ask me. Who would've thought I'd see one here? I wonder how she tamed it."
As he continued floating down, he continued watching the confrontation. From afar he recognized one of the most skilled commanders in SAO and immediately recognized him. "I knew they'd assign for Dungeon Spire... I don't think they'll clear it though with their subpar superheroes in Japan."
The man chuckled at the thought of their number one superhero— Plunder. While he was strong and he could make his way to the top as one of the most formidable superheroes to ever exist in the world, he chose to be a pacifist. Not only does he plunder superpowers from criminals who deserved it, but he also goes as far as to ask permission and if the criminal says no, then he won't plunder that criminal's superpower. "Ridiculous." The man said to himself.
Once he reached an altitude that was ideal for him, he wore a smirk on his face as he put his hand up, palm extended. "Output, sixty percent," He muttered to himself before bringing his hand down.
The force from his palms was enough to make the waters of the Sea of Japan to concave, disrupting Eugen Wood's control over his water creatures. That's not all though— as the others tried to recover from the sudden wind pressure that was brought down upon them.
Emma and the others covered their faces as they were blown away by the wind. It took all of Emma's focus and sheer power to teleport everyone while Kuroe stopped all of them from being blown away. As for the water creatures and the Japanese Navy as a whole, however, they didn't meet the same fate. Since the battleships would take too long to steer, they received the full brunt of the tsunami caused by the wind pressure.
It was a good thing though. After all, if the ships weren't there, then the reporters by the shoreline and the citizens staying there would have faced the full brunt of the tsunami.
In any case, it was a very calculated move and the man was more than pleased to see that his attack worked the way he thought it would.
"Who was that?!" Eugen Wood exclaimed as he squinted his eyes into small slits so he could get a clearer look at the man floating by the sky.
"Come on, are you seriously doing this right now? You have a Dungeon to clear, right? Why don't you focus all your strength there instead of trying to break a harmless Dimensional Portal?" The man spoke.
"Who's that?" Hiroshi asked, curious.
"What are you talking about? That's him! You know! The one who appears on the television a lot!" Midori whispered.
"Who?"
"That's America's number one hero, Star Spangled." Midori continued.
